UIL sued over officiating changes

Posted: Friday, December 04, 2009

The Texas Association of Sports Officials filed a lawsuit Thursday against the University Interscholastic League to stop what it calls a UIL takeover of sports officiating in Texas and a tax on sports officials.

"We're hearing a lot of troubling things about what the UIL is telling our members and we would like the court to determine exactly what power the UIL has," TASO chairman George Coit said.
